To distinguish the authenticity of a Casio watch, you can do it from the following aspects:
Observe the workmanship**: The dial of the watch has a clear digital scale, the dial is bright and clear, the button damping is large, and the feel is firm and firm. Imitation dial numerals may be rough, the dial is dull, and the keys are loose.
Check the logo font**: the logo letter spacing standard, the font neat specification. In contrast, the logo letters of the imitation may be more compact, and the overall feel is slightly flattened.
Analysis strap**: The watch strap is tightly connected, and the gap is small and standardized. Conversely, imitation bands may have loose joints with noticeable and uneven gaps.
Check the screw holes**: There is a circle of grooves in the side screw holes, the bottom cover screws are through and open at all corners, and the screws are of different lengths. Fakes may not have this feature.
Movement & Battery**: Imported movement and specific type of battery (e.g. CR1220) are used, fakes may use domestic movement and mismatched battery model (e.g. CR2025).
Check the synchronization calibration function**: Check whether the hour and minute hands are synchronized with the calibration function, the minute hand can be rotated counterclockwise, which may not be available on fakes.
Check the bottom texture and label**: The bottom texture is clear and shiny, the logo is moderately spaced, the font is standardized, and the label is printed with words such as the model number. Imitations may appear blurry on these details or lack model identification.
Warranty Card & Packaging**: The warranty card uses standard Songti characters and is marked as "Casio (Guangzhou) Commerce*** while fakes may use bold font with different company names. **The surface texture of the packaging box is horizontal, flat and neat, while the imitation may have vertical strip texture, and the workmanship is not meticulous enough.
When purchasing, it is recommended to go to the official ** or physical store to make a purchase, and avoid buying through unreliable channels on the Internet to reduce the risk of buying fakes. If you have any doubts about the authenticity of the watch, you can check it against the above details or contact the official Casio customer service for verification.
